Question

Assertion: A rocket works on the principle of conservation of linear momentum.
Reason: Wheneven there is a change in momentum of one body, the same change occurs in the momentum of the second body of the same system but in the opposite directio.

Answer 1

Answer:

assertion is correct and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion statement

Answer 2

Answer:

Both A and R is true

Explanation:

Rocket ejaculates gases in backward direction which creates momentum of the gases backwards and thus by conservation of momentum, the rocket gets a momentum in the forward direction making it to move forward.
